INDIANAPOLIS -- Jadeveon Clowney has a target on his back, and one his fellow defensive end prospects fired an arrow directly at the bullseye Sunday, setting the stage for a showdown Monday at the NFL Scouting Combine.

Auburn's Dee Ford did the deed.

"I'm better (than Clowney). Let's put it like this. People like to talk about size all the time. Size is pretty much overrated in my eyes," Ford said on Sirius XM NFL Radio Sunday. "You can look at guys like Robert Mathis, Elvis Dumervil, Von Miller. These are 6-2 guys and under. People are just looking at the fact that he's a physical specimen. Honestly, if you watch the film, he plays like a blind dog in a meat market, basically."
